Transcripts

Speaker:

Hello, there Modern Man. On today's episode, I'm going to

Speaker:

tell you today four things that you can do right now that will

Speaker:

naturally boost your testosterone, starting this

Speaker:

week. And the fourth thing, you're going to be very

Speaker:

surprised at the end until you hear. That the one alone that

Speaker:

can change everything for you.

Speaker:

This podcast is for you, the Modern Man. I'm Dr Anne Truong,

Speaker:

your host. I'm an intimate health medical doctor and best

Speaker:

selling author of the book, Erectile Dysfunction Fix. I'll

Speaker:

do a deep dive into sexual health and performance and how

Speaker:

it affects men of all ages and backgrounds. So let's get

Speaker:

started, and be sure to visit my website at

Speaker:

sexualhealthformenpodcast.com for more information and

Speaker:

resources from the show. See you on the inside.

Speaker:

I'm Dr. Anne Truong. I'm a sexual health specialist for the

Speaker:

last 26 years, I've treated over 7000 men with ED. Here's what's

Speaker:

happening in your body right now: after the age of 30,

Speaker:

testosterone drop one to 2% every single year. By the time

Speaker:

you're 50 or 60, you can be at least 30% to 40% lower than you

Speaker:

were in your prime. Now, what does that feel like? Low energy,

Speaker:

weight gain, and also loss of muscle, belly fat, and also

Speaker:

chest fat as well. Brain fog, weaker erection, lower libido.

Speaker:

Sound familiar? Now, most doctors will hand you over a

Speaker:

prescription, a pill, an injection, and I understand why,

Speaker:

because those things do work. But there's a natural path that

Speaker:

is proven by science, and it starts with something most men

Speaker:

are completely ignoring. Not all exercises are equal when it

Speaker:

comes to testosterone, most men are doing it the wrong kind. And

Speaker:

today I'm going to show you exactly what to do instead. Four

Speaker:

things starting right now. So listen carefully, Modern Man.

Speaker:

So think of testosterone like a factory. That factory needs a

Speaker:

reason to run at full capacity, right? So if you go for a walk

Speaker:

around the block, the factory says "We're fine, we no need to

Speaker:

ramp up." But when you challenge your large muscle group, like

Speaker:

your legs, your buttock, your back, and your core, the factory

Speaker:

gets a very different signal. It says "We need more testosterone,

Speaker:

we need more drug hormone, fire everything up." So this is

Speaker:

compound resistant training, and the research is very clear.

Speaker:

There was a study that was published in the Journal of

Speaker:

Strength and Conditioning, research showed that men who

Speaker:

perform compound resistant exercises had significantly

Speaker:

higher testosterone level than men who does cardio alone. So it

Speaker:

is like your muscle, you go to the gym and you do bicep curls,

Speaker:

and when you do biceps curls, it stretches the muscle. The body

Speaker:

try to repair that muscle by adding more cells, and that is

Speaker:

how the muscle becomes bigger and stronger. Well, same thing

Speaker:

happened when you challenge your large muscle group. Those are

Speaker:

the large buttock muscle, the leg muscle, the ab muscle. Your

Speaker:

body repairs, your body rebuilds, and produce more

Speaker:

testosterone in the process. So, let me walk you through exactly

Speaker:

what to do. You ready? Here we go, guys.

Speaker:

So, number one, body weight squat. Yes, this is the king of

Speaker:

all testosterone-producing movement. Why is this the king

Speaker:

of testosterone-producing movement? Because it activates

Speaker:

large muscle groups all at once in just one exercise. Your

Speaker:

quadriceps, your hamstring, your glutes, your core, all working

Speaker:

together. That is the signal your testosterone factory needs.

Speaker:

Here's how to do it correctly. Stand with your feet shoulder

Speaker:

width apart, hold toes pointed outward, lower yourself down

Speaker:

like you're sitting on a chair. Go until thighs are parallel to

Speaker:

the floor, almost like 90 degrees, or as close as you can,

Speaker:

then push back through your heels. Now, here's the key to do

it correctly:

slow it down, three seconds lowering, pause,

it correctly:

and then two seconds back up. That control tension is what

it correctly:

triggers the hormone response. Your prescription, three sets of

it correctly:

10 to 15 reps, three times per week. That's it. Just squat

it correctly:

about 90 degrees, and you just need three set of 10 to 15 reps.

it correctly:

That's it. All right, ready for number two?

it correctly:

Number two is the hip hinge. The squat that works in the front of

it correctly:

your leg, and this hinge works the back, the hamstring, the

it correctly:

glutes, and your lower back. So, together they activate nearly

it correctly:

every big muscle around your waist. And that combination is

it correctly:

the most powerful testosterone signal you can send. Here's how

it correctly:

to do it. Stand tall, soft bend your knees, and then now push

it correctly:

your hip back like someone that has a rope around your waist and

it correctly:

pull you backward. Keep your back straight, feel the stretch

it correctly:

in the back of your legs, and drive your hip forward to stand

it correctly:

back up again. This is the one rep, so it's a simple movement,

it correctly:

but do not let that fool you. The Romanian deadlift, that is

it correctly:

the name, is one of the most steady exercises for

it correctly:

testosterone response in men over 50. Your prescription:

it correctly:

three sets of 10 to 12 reps. Do this the same day as your squat,

it correctly:

same session, they are partners.

it correctly:

Now, number three: walking, But with a target. I know what

it correctly:

you're thinking, "Walking?That's nothing." But here's what

it correctly:

nobody's telling you about walking and testosterone.

it correctly:

Walking at a moderate pace for 30 to 45 minutes lower cortisol,

it correctly:

which is a stress hormone that suppresses testosterone, but it

it correctly:

also suppresses erection as well. So when cortisol goes

it correctly:

down, testosterone goes up. You see the seesaw? So this is why

it correctly:

walking is important, but the target matters. Research shows

it correctly:

that men who hit 7,000 steps a day have more testosterone level

it correctly:

than men who do not. So, not 10,000 not 15,000 but just only

it correctly:

7,000 So, this is your prescription: 7,000 steps a day,

it correctly:

every day. You'll be amazed how many steps you can add in the

it correctly:

day. For instance, parking farther away, picking the

it correctly:

stairs, a short walk after dinner - it all adds up. And

it correctly:

moderate exercise just means that when you're walking, you

it correctly:

want to walk at a pace where it's hard for you to count up to

it correctly:

10, but you can still talk.

it correctly:

Okay, Modern Man. If you're struggling with weak erection,

it correctly:

low energy, the food you eat could be the big part of the

it correctly:

problem. One of the best research pathways to boost

it correctly:

circulation, support healthy testosterone and improve sexual

it correctly:

performance is the Mediterranean diet. It's packed with food that

it correctly:

open up your blood vessel, lower inflammation, and fuel your

it correctly:

hormone, naturally. I've seen men notice real improvement in

it correctly:

both energy and erection within weeks when they shift to this

it correctly:

style of eating. So check out the Mediterranean diet link

it correctly:

right here below, and get that as soon as you can. Stronger

it correctly:

testosterone and better erection.

it correctly:

Now, before I give you the fourth thing, the one thing

it correctly:

that's going to surprise you, I will tell you about something

it correctly:

that can accelerate everything we are talking about today. You

it correctly:

want a complete program designed specifically for you for

it correctly:

increasing your testosterone, energy, erection, and sexual

it correctly:

confidence. Check out the Get Hard System to see this is

it correctly:

something that will work for you. Go to the link down below,

it correctly:

or type in the link Renew with Dr. Anne. Check it out if this

it correctly:

is something that you want to get started to get you back in

it correctly:

the game again. Check the link down below.

it correctly:

So, here's the fourth thing, and I told you this is the one thing

it correctly:

that kind of surprised you. It is not a new exercise, it is not

it correctly:

a supplement, It is when you do it. Research shows that men who

it correctly:

exercise in the morning between 7am and 10am they get

it correctly:

significant higher testosterone boost from the exact same

it correctly:

workout compared to men who do that same workout in the

it correctly:

evening. Same exercises, same set, same rep, but the morning

it correctly:

group get a higher testosterone response. Why? Because in the

it correctly:

morning your cortisol is naturally at its highest point.

it correctly:

And here's the fascinating part: when you pair elevated cortisol

it correctly:

with resistant training in the morning, your body amplifies the

it correctly:

testosterone response. It is like giving your testosterone

it correctly:

factory a double shift. So, studies have shown that morning

it correctly:

exercise, they can see up to 30% greater post exercise

it correctly:

testosterone spike compared to evening exerciser. 30 from the

it correctly:

same workout. So the full prescription is this squat and

it correctly:

hip hinge three times a week, walk 7000 steps every day, and

it correctly:

do your resistance training in the morning between 7am and 10am

it correctly:

That combination, that is your testosterone protocol right

it correctly:

here.

it correctly:

So let me bring it all together. Number one, the body weight

it correctly:

squat, three sets of 10 to 15. Number two, the hip hinge, three

it correctly:

sets of 10 to 12 rep, and do both three times per week.

it correctly:

Number three, walk 7,000 steps every day, as most of you can,

it correctly:

or four to five times a week. Then number four, do this in the

it correctly:

morning, between 7am and 10am This is when your body is primed

it correctly:

to respond.

it correctly:

Now, how long before you feel a difference? Here's what I see in

my patient:

within about 2 to 3 weeks, believe it or not, you

my patient:

have better energy, better sleep. And within 4 to 6 weeks,

my patient:

mood improve, drive come back, erection come back. By 8 to 12

my patient:

weeks of consistency, testosterone level increases in

my patient:

blood work, and erection quality comes right along with it as

my patient:

well. So, you do not need a prescription for this. You do

my patient:

not need a shot. You just need to give your body the right

signal:

consistency and your body will respond. That is what

signal:

is designed to do. Just like you brush your teeth every day,

signal:

right? You take care of your smile, you do these movements

signal:

three times a week to take care of your hormones, and your

signal:

confidence will follow. Just know that you do not have to

signal:

suffer with ED, and that you have sexual confidence. You can

signal:

signal:

now can do it. So, I want to hear from you. Leave a comment,
